Artwork by Pierre Coupey is currently on display as part of Transformations (September 28 – April 12, 2019) at Gordon Smith Gallery of Canadian Art in North Vancouver. The group exhibition, curated by Daylen Luschinger, is made up of selected works from the Artists For Kids Collection.

Congratulations to Pierre Coupey on his induction to the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts, taking place this weekend in Ottawa. Since 1880, the RCA has recognized and celebrated the achievements of Canadian visual artists and designers.

Pierre Coupey’s solo exhibition ACROSS | BETWEEN | WITHIN (October 13 – November 4th, 2017) at the Odon Wagner Gallery, Toronto, has been reviewed by Dion Kliner on New York City-based art blog Two Coats of Paint.

Kliner describes Coupey’s paintings as “lush and wet, the paint’s viscous materiality so thinned that it runs down in rivulets creating a gravitational flow, making the paintings look as if they could slide right off their supports.”

Pierre Coupey is one of several artists on display at the Kelowna Art Gallery as part of The Big Picture, a group exhibition curated by Liz Wylie that runs from April 29 to June 25, 2017.

The Big Picture brings together a selection of large-scale artworks from the gallery’s permanent collection, some of which have never been exhibited. As curator, Wylie expresses interest in the way artists “rise to the occasion” when they decide to work on a large scale. The show has a distinctly local feel: nearly half its artists are from the Okanagan, and the rest are from around the country.

Congratulations to Pierre Coupey on the completion and installation of Untitled XV. Measuring 102″ x 222″, the oil on canvas triptych is a significant achievement and is quickly becoming a landmark art piece in downtown Vancouver.
